In a commitment valid for the semifinal of the Leagues Cup, Lionel Messi’s Inter Miami will face the Philadelphia Union this Tuesday at 8 pm (Brasília time). The match will take place at Subaru Park and will be broadcast by Apple TV.
Since the arrival of its new number 10, Inter Miami has become a different team. The club had not managed a win in the six games before Messi’s debut. Since the playmaker entered the field, the Americans are 100% successful.
Tata Martino’s charges have won all five games they have played in the League Cup so far, thrashing Charlotte 4-0 in the last round. Messi has been the great leader, scoring eight goals for the Miami team so far.

On the other hand, the Philadelphia Union promises to give Inter a job. The club comes from a seven-game winning streak and is considered one of the strongest in US football. They were runners-up in the last MLS, being defeated by Los Angeles FC on penalties.
Whoever manages to advance in the confrontation will take the winner of the duel between Monterrey-MEX and Nashville-USA, in the other semifinal, in the final. This is the third edition of the Leagues Cup, with Club León being the last champion, in 2021.
